"When most people think of the creative process, it can conjure a presumption of the artist going off, creating where and when they can, and coming back with something that tells a personal story, reflects current events, or is an experimentation. While some of that may be incorporated into Michael’s projects, what made him a fantastic to work with was that he also kept in mind the strategy – the goal to get guests to come out to see, hear, feel, sing along, clap and cheer. That may seem like an ugly marketing term for an artist. But he brought funny, inspiring, stunning and memorable shows to life."
Victoria Lim - Vice President, Strategies360, Former Managing Editor, Walt Disney World Public Relations & Editorial Content
